"We haven't canceled anything. K thanks" is the tone I get from it. Pretty uncool considering that it took them three years to release five volumes. I mean, you can't blame fans for questioning if it's been canceled considering there hasn't been a new release in nearly a year. Yeah, the other person shouldn't have jumped the gun, but come on, Viz. Son Goku is the greatest hero on Earth. Five years after defeating the demon king Piccolo, he’s grown up and has a family. But what is the real reason for Goku’s incredible strength? A visitor from outer space arrives bearing terrible news—Goku is an alien, and the visitor, Raditz, is Goku’s brother! When Raditz turns out to be a ruthless killer, Goku must fight his incredibly strong brother to save his family and the entire human race. A surprising alliance may be Earth’s last Goku will team up with his old enemy Piccolo to save the world!

You think Vegerot sounds awful, many people think Kuririn sounds awful, personally I think "Bulla", the American Evil Dragon names, a bunch of the Super name decisions ("Beerus", spelling Geran as "Jiren", etc.), the "Buu" and "Frieza" spellings, a huge chunk of the romanised-rather-than-translated-or-adapted subtitle terms ("Ryugadani Valley" from episode 2, various instances of "Tenkaichi"/"Tenkaichi Budoukai" in the pre-first tournament training, "Kami"/"Kami-sama", etc. etc.), and various other well-established, well-accepted name decisions sound stupid. For instance, even as recently as the 3-in-1 releases, they still call Vegetto "Vegerot," which sounds awful regardless of how much more sense it makes to the US naming conventions. Cell would be 2018-2019, Boo would be 2021-2022, Boyhood would be 2024-2025, and Piccolo would be 2027-2028. Jump Super Stars • Heroes: Victory Mission • Heroes: Charisma Mission • Heroes: Ultimate Charisma Mission • Discross Jinryoku God Max!! • Xenoverse 2 • Fusions • FighterZI was thrown into the world with little explanation, but everything was explained well-enough along the way. I got at least some understanding of their powers and how they worked. There was a bit more violence than I expected, and I didn’t grow too attached to the characters, but it was interesting. The fight scenes were pretty easy to follow. The art wasn't too bad, either. I mean, just because Viz translated it, doesn't mean everyone's accepted their translation of it, especially since they seemed to have had a "close enough" attitude towards the translations (if the amount of corrections Herms had to make are any indication). For instance, even as recently as the 3-in-1 releases, they still call Vegetto "Vegerot," which sounds awful regardless of how much more sense it makes to the US naming conventions. If Viz are merciful, and decide to release each arc over the course of a year, this will be better, with the release schedule being more like Cell in 2018, Boo in 2020, Boyhood in 2022, and Piccolo in 2024. For ages, I was afraid to re-read the content of this volume. I absolutely loved Dragon Ball Z from about 2003 to maybe 2007. It was in 2006 that I began to read the manga, starting from the beginning of the Dragon Ball series, with kid Goku, as the series is meant to be, regardless of VIZ's distinction between both halves of the series. Unfortunately, some time in high school, I somewhat randomly came up with this silly idea that I disliked (no, "hated") the Z chapters, for shitting so hard on the comedic adventure roots, in favor of aliens and power-level bullshit and directionless story arcs.

So, using these assumptions to estimate the release times, and not counting overhangs of a month or two in/out of the given years(Freeza's last volume was the 3rd of January 2017, but in my estimation, I would write Freeza's release as just being 2016)... Dark Demon Realm Mission! ( Dispatch! Time Patrol • Time of the Dark Demon Realm's Resurrection • Complete Resurrection) • Universe Mission!! ( Prison Planet • Universe Seed) • Big Bang Mission!!! ( Big Bang Mission • The New Universe • End of Experiment) • Ultra God Mission!!!! ( Begin! Super Space-Time Tournament • Vs. the Former Supreme Kai of Time) • Meteor Mission! Every Dragon Ball translation has its own particular naming conventions, and each one has its merits. Deciding a translation is bad just because you personally find these names don't roll of the tongue as well as the names that you're used to from the version you grew up with strikes me as a particularly immature way of criticising. That said, yeah, at the current point, reading for free is an incredibly stupid idea because Viz is basically asking for the second lowest price anyone could reasonably ask for a paid service and the replacement scans aren't done yet (or have been outright cancelled, idk).

A review copy was provided by the publisher, VIZ Media, and Erik Jansen from MediaLab PR. Thank you so, so much! Goku's older brother, Raditz unveil the truth about Goku's incredible strength and leads the Dragonball franchise into a cosmic scale as the strongest fighters on Earth must prepare for the inevitable arrival of 2 more Saiyans. Watch the struggle as the champions of Earth overcome their differences so they can overcome Raditz's overwhelming might. This is the beginning of Dragonball Z in full color. :) So, if this turns out true, we'll be waiting 11 years for the rest of the Full Colour manga. As much as Viz's handling of Full Colour is awful, I doubt they'd be that bad with it, although I wouldn't totally discount the possibility.
